Information
1975 Porsche 911 930 Turbo RS von Karajan
Karajan put the same meticulous attention to detail that made him a master of Nibelungen productions into the design of his cars.
When he contacted the Porsche special order department in 1974 about a new Type 930, he made it absolutely clear that he wanted a lighter and more sports-oriented version of the standard production vehicle.
Karajan dictated that the car should weigh less than one thousand kilograms and its power-to-weight ratio should be well under four kilos per hp—no easy task, given that the standard version was already at 1,140 kilos and 260 hp. The Porsche CEO at the time, Ernst Fuhrmann, carried out the special wishes of his prominent customer himself.
In 1976, von Karajan was photographed sitting in the car for the cover of his 'Famous Overtures' album.
